(REFERENCE) 80 to 81 interchangable parts
I have an 80 Sa and am wondering if the 81 FB parts can be used on it. 
front and rear springs, the entire rear axel setup, gastank. Both cars have the 12a.

you could take the rear end from an 83-85 but u will need the 83-85 driveshaft to go w/ it, the flange for the diff changed in 83. keep the radiator and oil cooler cause they're better than the 83-85 style. the springs and suspension bits are interchangeable, but as said before the gas tanks are not. it would also be adviseable to use the full ignition system (coils, wiring and distributor) from the 82-85 for ease of maintainance and reliability, as they switched from a points style distributor to a full electronic style

The tanks are different but are the fuel pumps different also? Are the coils the same or no? Sorry for the thread jack.. hitting a junkyard tomorrow and looking for a few parts I might be needing..
